While Junior Leopard was leisurely playing in the Wu Family's mansion, the whole Qinlingjun City and even the whole martial arts world were stirred up by the battle outside Qinlingjun City.
How could it not be stirred up? Wang She and Lu Shaoyou, two Level Eight experts, fought outside Qinlingjun City. As a result, the gate of Qinlingjun City was smashed and the official road outside the city was in a mess. In the end, both sides suffered heavy losses.
No one got the upper hand.
The most unexpected thing was that although he was seriously injured, the White Blademaster Lu Shaoyou still insisted on entering the city and completed all the procedures of the marriage proposal. He became the prospective son-in-law of Yunzhou Governor Ma Tianchang. But this son-in-law was too unlucky. Nobody knew who spread the news that in the battle with Wang She, Lu Shaoyou was seriously injured and needed three years of closed-door training to recover.
In other words, if he wanted to be promoted from a prospective son-in-law to a real son-in-law, he would have to wait at least three years.
"Ma Tianchang's daughter is 16 years old today. In three years, she will be 19. She has become an old lady!"
"Only an old lady is interesting!"
… …
… …
Then, there was a burst of lewd laughter.
This was an ordinary teahouse in Qinlingjun City. Teahouses and inns were the places with the most news and the most complicated news in Jianghu. People from all walks of life came and went in and out of the teahouse. They were all talking about the hottest news and the hottest gossip. At the moment, the hottest news and the hottest gossip were naturally the fight between Level Eight experts at the city gate a few days ago and the inside story behind it.
"You bastards, no ivory can come out of your filthy mouths. How can you talk about Miss Ma's affairs here?" A cold reprimand suddenly sounded, and two figures fell from the second floor of the teahouse and smashed on a table downstairs. Suddenly, tea splashed and tea leaves flew everywhere. The two unlucky guys hit the table in the mouth and fell heavily to the ground, groaning in pain.
"Master Lin, Master Lin, Master Lin!" After the person kicked the two people down, the teahouse was quiet at first, then there was a burst of enthusiastic greeting.
The man was in his forties and was dressed in a white robe. There was a conspicuous scar on his face that extended from the corner of his left eye to the corner of his mouth. It was like a flesh-colored centipede and looked extremely ferocious.
This person's name was Lin Sheng, a local tyrant in this area. He held the title of a constable in the magistrate's office. In fact, he usually had nothing to do, but he was on good terms with all sorts of people. In this area, he had quite a bit of influence.
As a member of the prefectural government, he naturally had to protect the interests of the Governor's Mansion. Therefore, these people in the teahouse had spoken rudely, so he naturally had to teach them a lesson.
Lin Sheng merely smiled at the compliments from the crowd. He did not pay too much attention to them. These people were all nobodies who came from the lowest rungs of society. How could they possibly have any experience? On the other hand, the person he was going to meet today might be young, but he had a boundless future ahead of him. Naturally, he would have to properly curry favor with him.
"Old Chen, get me a private room on the third floor. I have an important guest today. Don't let anyone disturb me!" Lin Sheng said to the manager of the teahouse, Old Chen, with his hands behind his back.
"Yes, yes, yes!" Old Chen nodded his head repeatedly. He turned around and went to make the arrangements. After a while, he came back and led Lin Sheng to a private room on the third floor. He brewed tea and bowed before leaving. Before leaving, he even closed the door.
After the time it took to burn a stick of incense, a young man of no more than 11 or 12 years old and an old man over 60 years old entered the teahouse. The old man went to the counter and asked, then led the young man to a private room on the third floor.
Lin Sheng had already been waiting inside for a long time. Seeing them enter, he hurriedly bowed to the young man. "Young Master Shi, you're here!"
This young man was Shi Jing. Compared to half a year ago at the Wu Family's selection, he had grown a little taller. However, his face still had a trace of arrogance and despotism.
"News? Old Chen, have you inquired clearly?"
Shi Jing glanced at Lin Sheng and slowly sat on a chair. Lin Sheng attentively poured tea for him, his face full of flattery.
"I've inquired clearly. The Zhao Family's carriage will arrive in one day. However, that thing is not included in this list!"
"Not included in this list? What do you mean?! "Shi Jing's expression changed as he asked sternly.
His anger naturally had a domineering aura. After being yelled at like this, Lin Sheng began to panic. "This, this, it's like this. That thing is actually in the Zhao Family. Young Master Zhao brought it with him the last time he came back. It has always been by his side, so …!"
Shi Jing waved his hand and looked at Lin Sheng with a gloomy face. "It has been by his side for a long time. So, where did he put it?"
"I've already inquired about this!" At this point, Lin Sheng's face revealed a proud expression. He took small steps towards Shi Jing and whispered in his ear. This information was also his biggest reliance today.
Indeed, after listening to him, Shi Jing also showed a satisfied expression.
"Good, very good. You've done very well!" Shi Jing said three "good" consecutively and stood up in satisfaction. He gave Old Cang a look. Old Cang took out a bulging cloth bag from his bosom and gently placed it on the tea table.
"Alright, Lin Sheng, this matter ends here. I hope you can shut your mouth and forget everything that has happened in the past few days. Otherwise, you should know what the consequences will be!"
"Thank you, Young Master Shi. Thank you, Young Master Shi!" Lin Sheng nodded repeatedly and hurriedly kept the cloth bag. He nodded and bowed as he sent the two of them out.
"Young Master, this fellow knows too much. Should we …!" After leaving the tea house and walking for a short distance, Old Cang asked Shi Jing.
"What are you afraid of? This kind of thing, even if you give him a lot of courage, he wouldn't dare to say it out loud!" Shi Jing shook his head indifferently. "He's just a small character. He doesn't have much weight. At this time, it's not good to stir up trouble. Do you understand?!"
"Yes, Young Master is far-sighted. I understand!" Old Cang said respectfully.
Listening to Old Cang's slightly flattering words, Shi Jing's mouth curled into a proud smile.
"Who would have thought that the one surnamed Zhao would hide things in his own residence. However, he is also in the Wu Family's mansion, so it's inconvenient for him to move around. I need to find a helper!"
… … …
… … …
"You've already cultivated to the Level Two realm?!"
In the small courtyard of the Wu Family's mansion, Xu Yong looked at Junior Leopard with a face full of smiles. His own disciple had a promising future, which made him the happiest. This was the same no matter which world it was. Even in the era of industrialization of education, a teacher would have one or two hundred students at the same time. Their favorite students were those with good results.
Xu Yong only had one direct disciple, Junior Leopard. Of course, he saw him as his own. Now that he saw Junior Leopard raise his cultivation to Level Two in such a short period of time, he was naturally full of praise. "Very good. It's only been half a year and you've already achieved such results. Although the Moon-evil Painted Skin Punching Skill is marvelous, it can't be done without your own hard work!"
"This is all thanks to the punching skill that you taught me. The Moon-evil Painted Skin Punching Skill is indeed marvelous. Otherwise, I wouldn't have broken through so quickly!"
"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. How's your practice of the Wild Hammering Skill going?!"
"Master, please give me some pointers!" Junior Leopard said. He reached out and took out two small silver hammers from the sides of his waist. These two silver hammers were tied together by a four and a half foot long fine silver chain. The hammers were oval shaped and the size of a golden melon. They were usually hung on Junior Leopard's waist and were very convenient to use.
These hammers were specially made by Xu Yong for Junior Leopard. He was a master of refining weapons. The things that he made were naturally much stronger than the things that Junior Leopard made himself. Although it wasn't an object that had been tempered a hundred times, it was still a product that had been tempered 49 times.
Although the hammers weren't big, their weight wasn't small. Altogether, they weighed a total of 81 kilograms. When brandished, the power was extremely great.
As for the 81 movements of the Wild Hammering Skill, Xu Yong had already taught Junior Leopard. However, there were only 72 movements.
This set of hammering skills was the Wu Family's Clan Guarding Martial Skill. Even an Elder like Xu Yong only learned 72 movements. The last nine movements were only in the hands of the Family Heads. Even the First Elder Lyu Yiyue didn't know.
However, even these 72 movements were extremely powerful. Moreover, Junior Leopard had once had an epiphany on the way of hammering skills. Although this set of hammering skills was profound, it wasn't difficult to learn!
Junior Leopard deliberately showed off in front of his master. He displayed a set of hammering skills. However, the wind whistled and the silver light flashed. Junior Leopard's whole body was engulfed in two balls of silver light. The two balls of silver light suddenly separated and then came together, sometimes far and sometimes near. Although they were smashed in the air, every time the silver light stopped and the hammering body was exposed, the sound of the air being smashed by the hammering could be heard clearly. The two hammering bodies were like the appearance of a cloud dragon, appearing and disappearing in a flash and then turning into a ball of silver light.
In the blink of an eye, the whistling wind swept up all the fallen leaves in the courtyard, and the sound of the explosion caused by the hammer was also deafening. The two green-clothed manservants standing at the side were dumbfounded, and their eyes were wide open.
Even Xu Yong blinked his eyes and his hand stopped on the short beard under his chin. He forgot to move.
"Good hammering skills, good hammering skills. This set of Wild Hammering Skills, even if it is performed by me, is only so-so. Hehe, good, good. This boy's comprehension is so high that there is a trace of softness in this unparalleled hammering skills. It seems that I have really found a good successor!" Thinking of this, his face suddenly froze. "It's a pity that he can't learn the last nine moves of this set of hammer skills. Otherwise, he might really be able to practice this Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer Skill to the highest level. But, this is also good …!"
While he was thinking, he saw Junior Leopard's figure flash, and the silver light that filled the sky suddenly disappeared. For a moment, the wind and clouds disappeared, and the leaves that filled the sky floated down. Junior Leopard stood calmly in the courtyard, with a smile on his face. Not to mention, his appearance was quite like a young hero.
"Well, very good!" With this effect and this strength, no matter how harsh Xu Yong was, he would be satisfied. "Your 72 movements of Wild Hammering Skills have already got the essence. The only thing you need is the attainment. I have nothing else to teach you in this aspect. It's just that this Wild Hammering Skills is strong, but it lacks the last nine movements. Unless you can comprehend them by yourself, otherwise, you will never be able to practice it to the highest realm. Moreover, even if you can comprehend the last nine movements by yourself, you will spend too much time and effort and waste your aptitude. I have a set of punching skills called Thirteen Punches of Desolation. This set of punching skills was passed down by your Great Grandmaster. Its profoundness is not inferior to the Wild Hammering Skills, but its power is even greater. As the saying goes, punches and hammers are inseparable. Now I will pass this set of punching skills to you. You have to practice it well.
